Check out how Northeast Ohio hospitals ranked in the latest U.S. News Report


The Cleveland Clinic is once again the top hospital in Ohio and listed among the best in the country in the latest rankings by U.S. News & World Report.

In the 2023-24 Best Hospitals listings by U.S. News & World Report, the Cleveland Clinic is ranked No. 1 in cardiology and heart surgery in the country and is the No. 1 ranked hospital in Ohio.

This marks the 34th year for the rankings and this year’s listing looked at some 484 hospitals to determine the rankings.

The analysts at U.S. News & World Report looked at a variety of factors — including mortality rates, overall patientexperience, quality of nursing care and how successful the hospital getting patients back home — in determining the various rankings for everything from cancer to orthopedics.

“A recent survey of U.S. News users revealed more than four in five (84%) consider a hospital’s quality metrics to be important factors when deciding where to seek treatment for a serious medical issue,” said Ben Harder, chief of health analysis and managing editor at U.S. News in a statement. “Consumers want useful resources to help them assess which hospital can best meet their specific care needs. The 2023-2024 Best Hospitals rankings offer patients and the physicians with whom they consult a data-driven source for comparing performance in outcomes, patient satisfaction and other metrics that matter to them.”
